A 68-year-old male has died following a three-car crash on Vanderlin Drive, Berrimah, yesterday evening.

Superintendent Bob Rennie said the crash occurred at 6:30pm.

“Initial investigations suggest a stationary Ford Courier was turning right off Vanderlin Drive when struck from behind by a Toyota Landcruiser travelling south and pushed into oncoming traffic. This resulted in a head-on crash with a Mazda utility heading north.

“The driver of both the Mazda and Toyota had to be cut from their vehicles by Fire and Rescue Officers.

“The 38-year-old female driver of the Toyota and the 50-year-old male passenger in the Mazda remain in Royal Darwin Hospital in a stable condition.

“The 61-year-old male driver of the Ford was transported to hospital but later released.
